applies to the AUX 2 only. The signal to AUX 1 always passes through the channel fader first.
7. EFX CONTROL -
These knobs control the signal levels sent to the EFX bus. The channel signals
mixed by this bus have their overall level set by the MASTER EFX SEND control to the EFX jack located
on the front top panel.
The signal level will be affected by the channel fader’s setting.
NOTE: The Effect bus signal is also fed into the internal DSP (digital signal processor).
8. PAN/BALANCE CONTROL -
PAN (Mono Control) -
This control pans the channel signal across the master L and R buses, there-
fore determining the ideal position of the sound from that channel.
EXAMPLE:
If the PAN control is set all the way to the left, the sound from that channel will only be
projected from the left speaker only. Same goes for the control being set all the way to the right, only
from the right speaker.
BALANCE (Stereo Control) -
This control lets you adjust the balance of the L/R position, of the stereo
input signal. Turning this knob to the left moves the source signal towards the MAIN MIX L bus, turning
the knob to the right sends the signal towards the MAIN MIX R bus.
9. MUTE BUTTON -
This button when pressed “In” will cut all the signal feed going into the MAIN L/R,
AUX 2 (POST), EFX buses, and gROUP FADERS 1-2 and 3-4 (faders are located on the MAIN CON-
TROL SECTION). The button will glow orange when the mute function is activated.
10. PFL BUTTONS -
This button allows you to monitor the PRE FADER LEVEL input signal through
headphones or control room outputs. When the button is NOT pressed the channel signal will be sent
to the PFL bus.
11. ASSIGN SWITCHES -
With these buttons you can send the channel’s signal to either the gROUP
1-2, gROUP 3-4, or MAIN L/R buses. Pressing the button “In” will send the signal to the correspond-
ing bus.
12. CHANNEL FADERS -
Thes faders are channel’s main level control. These fader’s control the
signal level sent from the channel to the master mixing, group outs, and effect buses. The settings of
the input channel faders affect the mix or the sound level balance between the instruments or other
sources connected to the inputs. When a channel is not being used, the fader should be set at the
minimum position to prevent any unwanted noise added to the main signal.
